Statistical properties of nonlinear diffracting N -wave behind a random phase screen

Statistical properties of nonlinear diffracting N -wave behind a random phase screen Abstract Propagation of high amplitude N-wave behind a random phase screen is modeled based on the Khokhlov-Zabolotskaya-Kuznetsov equation. One-dimensional random phase screens with Gaussian power spectrum density are considered. The effects of nonlinear propagation, random focusing, and diffraction on the statistical properties of the acoustic field behind the screen, including propagation through caustics and beyond caustics, are analyzed. Statistical distributions and mean values of the acoustic field parameters obtained within the developed diffraction model and using nonlinear geometrical acoustics approach are compared. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Acoustical Physics Springer Journals

Abstract

Abstract Propagation of high amplitude N-wave behind a random phase screen is modeled based on the Khokhlov-Zabolotskaya-Kuznetsov equation. One-dimensional random phase screens with Gaussian power spectrum density are considered. The effects of nonlinear propagation, random focusing, and diffraction on the statistical properties of the acoustic field behind the screen, including propagation through caustics and beyond caustics, are analyzed. Statistical distributions and mean values of the acoustic field parameters obtained within the developed diffraction model and using nonlinear geometrical acoustics approach are compared.
